Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Gerät für Empfangsanlagen, insbesondere für Einkabelsysteme in Gemeinschaftsempfangsanlagen.The present invention relates to a device for receiving systems, in particular for single-cable systems in community reception systems.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind Empfangssysteme wie aus der europäischen Veröffentlichung EP 1 968 219 A1 bekannt. Bei dieser werden die empfangenen Satelliten-Programme mittels eines Frequenzumsetzers (Modulators) in der Kopfstation in ein zugeordnetes Frequenzband (FB1, FB2, FB3, usw.) umgesetzt und in die Einkabel-Leitungsverbindung eingespeist. Die Auswahl des Programms wird empfangsseitig vom Teilnehmer/Verbraucher unter Zuhilfenahme eines abstimmbaren Frequenzumsetzers (Tuner) auf dem jeweilige Frequenzband (FB1, FB2, FB3, usw.) vorgenommen.From the prior art are receiving systems as from the European publication EP 1 968 219 A1 known. In this, the received satellite programs by means of a frequency converter (modulator) in the head-end station in an associated frequency band (FB1, FB2, FB3, etc.) converted and fed into the single-cable line connection. The selection of the program is made on the receiver side by the subscriber / consumer with the aid of a tunable frequency converter (tuner) on the respective frequency band (FB1, FB2, FB3, etc.).

Diese Anwendung hat zur Folge, dass für die Vielzahl an empfangbaren Programmen (>2000) in einem herkömmlichen Einkabel-Leitungssystem aufgrund des Systems bzw. der Vielzahl an Frequenzen nicht genügend Platz zur Verfügung steht, die nur in limitierter Form eingespeist werden können.This application means that there is not enough space available for the many receivable programs (> 2000) in a conventional single-cable system due to the system or the large number of frequencies, which can only be fed in limited form.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung liegt in der Ausführung einer erfindungsgemäßen Einkabel-Antennenanlage, die ermöglicht, sämtliche Kanäle mehrerer Satelliten-, terrestrische, Radio und/oder Videodaten-Kanäle ohne Limitierung über ein Einkabel zu empfangen.The object of the invention is to implement a single-cable antenna system according to the invention, which makes it possible to receive all the channels of several satellite, terrestrial, radio and / or video data channels without limitation via a single cable.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Gerät für Empfangsanlagen, gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a device for receiving systems, according to the characterizing part of claim 1.

Ein Gerät für Anlagen zum Empfang von TV/Radio, Bild- und Datensignalen oder anderen Signalen wie z.B. digitale Signale (Internet), das mit mindestens einer Antenne verbunden werden kann, die demselben ein Signal überträgt und mittels eines Einkabels mit einem Verbraucher verbunden werden kann,
umfasst für jeden Verbraucher einen Satelliten/terrestrischen Empfänger, wobei der Empfänger am Ausgang einen Kanal sendet, der eindeutig mit einem Frequenzband verbunden ist, und wobei das Frequenzband eindeutig einem Empfänger zugeordnet ist, und wobei das Gerät Mittel umfasst, um auf Distanz den Ausgangskanal aus dem Satelliten/terrestrischen Empfänger an der Kopfstation umzuschalten.
A device for equipment for receiving TV / radio, image and data signals or other signals, such as digital signals (Internet), which can be connected to at least one antenna which transmits a signal to the same and can be connected to a consumer by means of a single cable .
comprises for each consumer a satellite / terrestrial receiver, the receiver at the output transmitting a channel uniquely connected to a frequency band, the frequency band uniquely associated with a receiver, and the apparatus comprising means for spacing the output channel switch the satellite / terrestrial receiver at the headend.

Das Einkabelsystem gemäß der Erfindung kann vor allem im Bereich der Gemeinschaftsantennenanlagen an Wohngebäuden bzw. Hotelanlagen mit Einkabelsystemen eingesetzt werden.The single-cable system according to the invention can be used above all in the field of community antenna systems on residential buildings or hotel complexes with single-cable systems.

Dies hat den Vorteil, dass bei einer bereits vorhandenen Einkabelleitung keine Änderungen an der Kabelstruktur vorgenommen werden muss, um sämtliche eingehende analoge/digitale bzw. TV-Radio-Programme zu empfangen, was die Installationszeiten und Kosten auf ein Minimum reduziert und gleichzeitig ein flexibles System für zukünftige Anpassungen und Änderungen garantiert.This has the advantage that in the case of an existing one-cable cable, no changes to the cable structure must be made to receive all incoming analog / digital or TV radio programs, which reduces installation times and costs to a minimum and at the same time a flexible system Guaranteed for future adjustments and changes.

Die Kopfstation ist derart ausgebildet, dass sämtliche SAT, terrestrische sowie Radioprogramme ohne Einschränkung ausgewählt und in ein schon vorhandenes Einkabel-Netz über einen dem Verbraucher fest zugeordneten Frequenzkanal eingespeist werden können.The head station is designed such that all SAT, terrestrial and radio programs can be selected without restriction and fed into an already existing single-cable network via a frequency channel permanently assigned to the consumer.

Die einzige Limitierung besteht in der Anzahl der Teilnehmer, die durch die zu Verfügung stehenden Frequenzbänder bzw. Kanäle begrenzt ist.The only limitation is the number of participants, which is limited by the available frequency bands or channels.

Das Einkabel-System ist so zusammengesetzt, dass die Umschaltung sämtlicher eingehender SAT/Terrestrischen bzw. Radio-Programme und Datenpakete bereits an der Kopfstation mittels Receiver, auf die eine koordinierte Fernsteuerung/Fernbedienung mit Adresszuweisung einwirkt, erfolgt. Dabei wird nur das jeweilige selektierte Programm mittels eines Modulators auf eine fest zugeordnete Trägerfrequenz analoger/digitaler Art aufmoduliert und für das dazugehörige TV-Gerät in die Einkabel-Leitungsverbindung eingespeist.The single-cable system is composed in such a way that the switching of all incoming SAT / terrestrial or radio programs and data packets already takes place at the head-end station by means of receivers, on which a coordinated remote control / remote control with address assignment acts. In this case, only the respective selected program is modulated by means of a modulator to a permanently assigned carrier frequency analog / digital type and for the associated TV set fed into the single-cable connection.

Die einzelnen Kombi-Receiver an der Kopfstelle werden über Multischalter herkömmlicher Art versorgt und haben die Aufgabe, zwischen allen empfangbaren SAT-Programmen vorzugsweise den Satelliten, die Position H/V und den Kanal unter allen empfangbare Satelliten- sowie auch terrestrischen Programmen und den Bild/Audiosignalen auszuwählen. Die Programmumschaltung erfolgt dabei über eine kodierte Funksteuerung, welche eindeutig jedem TV-Gerät und den dazugehörigen Receiver (combo receiver) in der Kopfstation zugeordnet werden kann. In einer weitern Ausführungsform kann der Befehl zum Umschalten des Signals über das Einkabel mittels eines Signals erfolgen, das von einem Umschaltgerät abgegeben wird, das zwischen der Vorrichtung des Teilnehmers und dem Einkabel zwischengeschalten ist, das auf die Kopfstation einwirkt.The individual combi receivers at the headend are supplied via conventional multiswitches and have the task, between all receivable satellite programs preferably the satellite, the position H / V and the channel among all receivable satellite and terrestrial programs and the image / To select audio signals. The program switching takes place via a coded radio control, which can be clearly assigned to each TV set and the associated receiver (combo receiver) in the headend. In a further embodiment, the command to switch the signal over the single-cable may be by means of a signal provided by a switching device interposed between the device of the subscriber and the single-cable acting on the head-end.

Jeder Teilnehmer kann über die Fernsteuerung das Signal an die Kopfstation senden, wo der zugeordnete Satelliten/terrestrische Empfänger (combo-receiver) oder andere Empfänger angeordnet sind, mittels eines Signals, das direkt dem Empfänger gesendet wird oder mittels des Einkabels oder anderen, bekannten Systemen(BUS, EIB/KNX), mittels denen es möglich ist, das gewünschte Programm auszuwählen oder andere Einstellungen zu ändern (z.B. Ton, Farbe usw.).Each subscriber may transmit via remote control the signal to the head-end station where the associated satellite / terrestrial receiver (combo-receiver) or other receivers are located, by means of a signal sent directly to the receiver or by means of the single-cable or other known systems (BUS, EIB / KNX), by means of which it is possible to select the desired program to select or change other settings (eg sound, color, etc.).

Sobald das Programm ausgewählt und das Signal der Kopfstation abgegeben wurde, wird das gewählte Programm mittels eines Frequenzmodulators in ein zugeordnetes Frequenzband umgewandelt und über einen Mischer in das Einkabel eingespeist. Die Frequenzabstimmvorrichtung (Tuner) des zugeordneten Teilnehmers die starr auf dasselbe Frequenzband eingestellt ist, wird dabei nicht verändert.As soon as the program has been selected and the head-end signal has been output, the selected program is converted into an assigned frequency band by means of a frequency modulator and fed via a mixer into the single-cable. The frequency tuning device (tuner) of the assigned subscriber, which is set rigidly to the same frequency band, is not changed thereby.

Für z.B. zehn Teilnehmer sind nur zehn Frequenzbänder (Kanäle) analoger/digitaler Art im Einkabel notwendig, um alle Programme mit herkömmlichen digital/analogen Vorrichtungen empfangen zu können.For e.g. Ten subscribers require only ten analog / digital frequency bands (channels) in the single-cable to receive all programs with conventional digital / analog devices.

Seitens der Kopfstation, die die Programme empfängt und der eine Programmumschaltung befohlen wird, ist entweder ein Empfänger für das drahtlose Signal des Teilnehmers, sobald er das Programm ändern möchte oder ein Empfänger für das Signal mittels des Einkabels oder eine andere Verbindung, wie z.B. mittels einer Telefonleitung und ein Empfänger für die Änderungen in der Kopfstation, die die Satelliten, terrestrischen Programme und Video/Audiosignale und Daten jeweils über Funk empfängt. Es wäre daher nicht mehr ein Satelliten/terrestrischer Empfänger (combo-receiver) erforderlich, der zwischen dem Einkabel und der Vorrichtung des Teilnehmers oder innerhalb der Vorrichtung des Teilnehmers zwischengeschaltet ist und es ist nicht mehr ein einstellbares Abstimmgerät (Tuner) notwendig, das in der Vorrichtung des Teilnehmers integriert ist.The head-end station receiving the programs and commanding a program switch is either a subscriber for the subscriber's wireless signal as soon as he wishes to change the program or a receiver for the signal by means of the one-cable or other connection such as a Telephone line and a receiver for the changes in the head-end station, which receives the satellites, terrestrial programs and video / audio signals and data via radio. It would therefore no longer be a satellite / terrestrial receiver (combo receiver) required, which is interposed between the single cable and the device of the subscriber or within the device of the subscriber and it is no longer an adjustable tuner (tuner) is necessary, which is integrated in the device of the subscriber.

Unter zur Verfügungsstellung von einfachen Audio/Video Demodulatoren, die die Aufgabe erfüllen, das zugeordnete Signal an der Steckdose auszuwählen und an die entsprechenden Empfangsvorrichtung anzupassen, ist auch die Verwendung von einfachen Bildschirmen, Monitor, TV Gerät bis hin zu einem Gerät mit hoher Qualität wie zum Beispiel ein HD TV Gerät gegeben.The provision of simple audio / video demodulators, which have the task of selecting the appropriate signal at the socket and adapting it to the corresponding receiving device, also involves the use of simple screens, monitors, TV sets, and even high-quality devices such as for example, given an HD TV device.

Die digitale Einspeisung des DVB-T "Digital Video Broadcasting Terrestrial" Signals in das herkömmliche Frequenzband ermöglicht die Grenze der Teilnehmer zu vervielfachen, da mehrere Teilnehmer pro Kanal integriert werden können und somit sämtliche Kanäle für mehr als zweihundert Teilnehmer zur Verfügung stellt.The digital feed-in of the DVB-T Digital Video Broadcasting Terrestrial signal into the traditional frequency band allows to multiply the limit of subscribers, as multiple subscribers can be integrated per channel, thus providing all channels for more than two hundred subscribers.

Sollte ein Teilnehmer einen weiteren Kanal Fernsehen/Radio, Video und Daten bei der Kopfstation anfordern, muss ganz einfach ein neuer Satellit/terrestrischer Empfänger (combo-receiver) oder Datenempfänger hinzugefügt werden, dem ein Frequenzband zugeordnet wird. Dies erlaubt dann den Empfang des Signals für den Teilnehmer auch an einer und derselben Steckdose, an der das erste Signal empfangen wird. Dies ermöglicht die Vision eines Kanals, beispielsweise am Monitor und die gleichzeitige Aufnahme eines weiteren Kanals auf einer Aufnahmevorrichtung, z.B. eine HD (hard disk).Should a subscriber request another channel of television / radio, video and data at the headend, it will be necessary simply to add a new satellite / terrestrial receiver (combo receiver) or data receiver to which a frequency band is assigned. This then allows the reception of the signal for the subscriber also at one and the same socket at which the first signal is received. This allows the vision of a channel, for example on the monitor and the simultaneous recording of another channel on a recording device, such as an HD (hard disk).

Die Umschaltung des Kanals erfolgt an der Kopfstation. Die Kanaländerung kann mittels eines drahtlosen Signals direkt an der Kopfstation mittels einer Fernsteuerung oder mittels eines Rücksignals über das Einkabel oder eine bekannte Verbindung, wie z.B. eine herkömmliche Telefonleitung erfolgen.The switching of the channel is done at the headend. The channel change can be accomplished by means of a wireless signal directly at the head-end station by means of a remote control or by means of a return signal via the single-cable or a known connection, e.g. a conventional telephone line done.
